About this study

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in patients undergoing thoracic procedures the lung inflammatory response in on one-lung ventilation and two-lung ventilation strategies The main question to answer is:

  • Lung inflammation differs when comparing one to two-lung ventilation strategies during the procedure? Participants will be divided in the classic one lung ventilation or two lung ventilation (using pneumothorax with CO2) and different biomarkers of lung inflammation will be measured after procedures.
Being tested
two lung ventilation, one lung ventilation

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • two lung ventilationProcedure or surgery

    The intervention do not involve a drug or device. It will be compared two different approaches to ventilate the lungs during the procedure . In this arm both lungs will be ventilated inserting a disposable trocar into the pleural cavity, and insufflating CO2 into the thoracic cavity via an insufflator. The insufflation pressure and the flow rate will be set as 8 mmHg and 10 l.min-1, of the cavity with CO2. The insufflator will be adjusted for cavity pressure in 8mmHg and flow of 10L/min.

  • one lung ventilationProcedure or surgery

    In this arm only one lung (the contralateral lung) will be ventilated using a Carlens type orotracheal tube

Receives: Procedure: two lung ventilation

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) levels of IL-6

    It will be compared the levels of IL-6 in the BALF collected immediately before and after the thoracic procedure

    Measured: at a maximum 2 hours after the end of the thoracic procedure

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) levels of IL-8

    It will be compared the levels of IL-8 in the BALF collected immediately before and after the thoracic procedure

    Measured: at a maximum 2 hours after the end of the thoracic procedure

  2. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) levels of IL-1

    It will be compared the levels of IL-1 in the BALF collected immediately before and after the thoracic procedure

    Measured: at a maximum 2 hours after the end of the thoracic procedure

  3. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) levels of TNF

    It will be compared the levels of TNF in the BALF collected immediately before and after the thoracic procedure

    Measured: at a maximum 2 hours after the end of the thoracic procedure

  4. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) levels of oxidative stress

    It will be compared the levels of malondialdehyde equivalents in the BALF collected immediately before and after the thoracic procedure

    Measured: at a maximum 2 hours after the end of the thoracic procedure

  5. Post-procedure pulmonary complications

    Composite outcome of associated pulmonary complications including pneumonia, re-expansion edema and postoperative non-re-expansion of the lung

    Measured: Until hospital discharge

  6. Systemic levels of inflammatory and oxidative markers

    Plasma levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-1, TNF and malondialdehyde equivalents

    Measured: at a maximum 2 hours after the end of the thoracic procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing two lung ventilation and one lung ventilation in people with Thoracic Diseases and Surgery, run by Universidade do Extremo Sul Catarinense - Unidade Academica de Ciecias da Saude at 1 site in Brazil.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) levels of IL-6 (time frame: at a maximum 2 hours after the end of the thoracic procedure). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 May 2024.
